ROCK ISLAND NOTES.

The contract for erecting the freight depot
of the Rock Island, has been awarded to
Bottom & Berger. 1t will be one hundred
and seventy-five feet long and forty feet
wide. It will be surrounded with a platform
near twenty feet wide The building will be
one story and sides of corrugated iron.
Work will commence at en- early date
The contract calls for completion 10y the 10th
of next month.
The contract for erecting the passenger
depot has not been awarded. Quite number
of contractors in the city sent in bids some
days ago, and the same have been opened
but no decision. 1t is surmised that the
figures were a little too much elevated
and the company is figuring on reducing the
price. 1t is lhought contractor may be sent
here who will put up the building. There
don't seem to be any cause for any rus!; in
the matter, as the company will ship in the
material over its own road. That being the
case, it will be some days before material
can be secured.
Track has been completed to the north
limits of the city. All the grading in the
country is finished.

Whereas, it has pleased the blessed Father,
in His wisdom, to take hence our sister in
Christ and good works, Mrs. Carrie d. ALI

labors do resolve,
1st. That we heartily express our heartfelt
sympathy with, and sorrow for the loved
ones, who shall ''see her face no more" until
they also shall have passed away from earth
ly scenes and whose loss can only be under
stood and estimated by those who have en-
dured like suffering
ID. That we heartily appreciate the record
accorded to her memory, Of noble, chris
tian womanhood, believing that she has
striven to make each hour golden with some
accomplished good.
Sd. Resolved that the members of this So
ciety regret that they had not known more
of the life of this sister iu their midst, whose
feet were treading the margin of
the river" I'VE, in our finite weakness,
could not know. that the last threads were
being woven into the wOOf Of her lfe,-the
last words spoken for good or evil, nor that
the Reaper was standing with ready sickle
to gather the ripened grain.>
Resolved, That as individuals we will
strive to know more of those associated with
help sister on her pathway, it shall not be
withheld.
Resolved, That copy Of these resolutions
be presented to the afflicted family; also

BOARD OF TRADE CENSUS.

The business and commercial census
ordered by the Board of Trade is being thor
oughly and rapidly taken by competent
corps Of Ell umerators under the dsrection Of
the assistant secretary of the board, MI. F.
K. Gillespie.
The city is divided into five districts. The
West Side is one; all east and north of Main
and Douglas another; all east and south of
Main and Douglas another; all west and
south Of Main and Douglas another; and an
other north and west of Main and Douglas.
The enumerators are meeting with much
courtesy with a very few exceptions oc-
cGsionally cut them eff rather
short 1t is hoped our bust
ness men will appreciate the efforts OF
the Board of Trade to compile useful and
valuable information in order that the gen
eral public may learn of the enormous
amount of business done in Wichita. The
figures thus far obtained will only be used
in totals of the respective businesses and no
business man need hesitate to answer the
few questions asked, as the figures will be
kept private as to each individual.
1t is intended to make the Journal of Com
merce the best of its kind issued by any city
in the country.

ON HIS EAR.

Several months ago gentleman came to
this city from Washington, d. c., and en-
barbed in the real estate business He claim
ed to be engaged to lady in his old city and
received about two letters week from her.
The marriage date was the first day of next
month, but Monday last he received letter
from an old time friend in Washington stat
ing that his intended had married on GER
tain day which was the date of the last letter.
The epistle did not indicate that it would be
the last one.
The news almost paralized the young real
estate man. He started for Washington
City yesterday morning with blood in his
eye. Those who know him fear that his
anger will last him to the seat of war and
then the press will soon have shooting af-
to run in its columns.

abused her 50 that neighbors had him ar

NOT FROM POISON
Says the Coroners Jury. Died the Two Tucker
Children But from the Busting Of
Blod VelSel in Bran.''

The investigating of the alleged poisoning
case of the two children of Frank Tucker
was resumed this morning. The stomach
after being taken from the body was carried
to the office OF Drs. Ordway & fearman and
there examined by DR.. Pearman and Dr.
Stoner. The following is the statement made
by Dr. Van Pearman at the inques t.:
Last night about o'clock at DIR. Stoner's
request I called at No. GIG Wichita street
1 found a colored boy about 5 years o: age
lying a corpse. The abdomen was very
much distended and discoloration Of all
the abdominal walls We made post NOR
tenn and found the stomach and all the intes-
tines very much distended with fiatus. We
removed the stomach and discovered a
two places. We dissected part of the in
testines, exposing their inner lining, which
bore evidences of some little congestion and
Inflammation. Upon making a careful
analysis of the stomach DR. StoEer and myself
found no substance nor evidences of any
poison. My professional opinion is the
cause of his death was due to no stomach in
testinal nor peritoneal complaint. Accord
ing 10 the symptoms related to me by DR..
Stoner obtained by him during his attend
ance upon the deceased based upon this
am of the opinion that his death was due to
cerebal congestion and blood clot in the
brain (cerebal hemorrhage) with possible
spinal complication"
DR.. Stoner said, 81 have heard DR. Pear
mans testimoney and can fully coroborate
his statement as to the death of Everett
Tucker
The coroners jury composed of Thos H.
Adams, VIM. Drey, ". Barker, Samuel Cox
Dennis Sanders aud s. E. Williams returned
their verdict as follows:
''The said jurors upon their oath do say
that from the testimony given, the deceased
came to his death from busting Blood Velsel
in Brain
Both the parents of the deceased children
are very much aggrieved at their deaths.
Tucker is an employe Of Green & Thomas,
and is spoken of as an honest and reliable
man. Yesterday purse of S95 was raised
in a few minutes for him and his family,
from among his co-laborers.

LOW TANES.

Robert Spurgin & Co. are. having one hun
dred thousand copies of the EAGLES editorial
on Low Taxes printed for distribution.
The article not only shows Sedgwick 70 be
the richest county in the state. and Wichita
the richest city. 10y the official figures taken
from the returns of the assessor. but that the
county and city have the least debt of any
other municipalities in Kansas. and conse-
quently lower taxes. That article and its
tables not only thoroughly and absolutely
refute all the lies of our enemies, but will be
worth hundreds of thousands of dollars TO
the city.
